Okay. I'm not yet fully convinced of the existence of such people, but I can all but guarantee there aren't any in this thread. There's a big difference between that and saying you should stop arguing with someone who clearly isn't interested in what you have to say.

Also, no one said trolls were lying about what they believed. Many trolls like to hide behind "I'm joking" as an excuse for believing things that are not acceptable to believe in modern society.

It's the definition of a troll. Being disingenuous in order to upset others. If that's not what you mean, don't call someone a troll.

I do believe trolls exist, and in my opinion the world's greatest troll is Ken M, who makes fun of people that were going to get upset anyway, and who never punches down. But I would rather use Hanlon's razor in most situations.
